Grown at high altitude, the teas of Nepal share similar qualities to those of neighbouring Darjeeling, blessed with a light, delicate sweetness. Cultivated under the heavy Himalayan mists of the small hilly village of Jitpur 1400 metres above sea level, this long leaf tippy tea has a superbly subtle taste profile, laced with gentle notes of nutmeg. We love this tea’s clarity of flavour – and so did the judges of the 2013 and 2014 Great Taste Awards, praising its “pleasing creaminess and mouth-feel, together with some muscatel character.”

A lovely flavoured tea great for an afternoon cuppa. Mild flavour and very refreshing.

This tea is slightly deeper in taste than a darjeeling. It tastes great at first sip and has a lovely, almost plummy, aftertone.
